Bassett MDE-4B Series Solid Carbide General Purpose End Mill, TiAlN Coated, 4 Flute, 30 Degrees Helix, Ball End, 1 inch Cutting Length, 1 /2 inch Cutting Diameter, 4 inch Length (Pack of 1)

Features

• Solid carbide tools offer long tool life and faster cutting speeds than other substrates, but are more brittle and must be used with rigid toolholding systems
• Titanium aluminum nitride coatings become self-lubricating when used at very high speeds, making them ideal for cutting without coolant ("dry machining")
• Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems
• When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging
• 4-flute end mills are most commonly used in profiling and in harder materials; stiffer construction results in minimal deflection
• Made in the USA
